Artist statement:
My practice is rooted in the act of navigating experience, fiercely rifling through elements of the visual world in an effort to demand meaning out of the present. Sseeking stability within this constantly shifting space, I compensate by manipulating the lens of attention itself, altering perspective on immediate, local surroundings through continual adjustments of focus aperture and resolution. Mediation and imposed disance render the local universal, and vice versa. With a degree of urgency, I am looking to find, and to behold, what is important.
